This is a win all around for Arkansas. Jobs, tax revenues,and a good store. No matter where it is in Arkansas as long as it is here. So do not complain and try not to screw this up people.

I do think they could have found a little beter location, but as far as quality fishing supplies, I don't think it comes much better than G-Loomis rods, Pflueger reels, Lucky Strike lures, and $40.00 flourcarbon line, they also carry a great line of less expensive gear for the fishermen with a tighter budget. When I am down here in Grayton Beach, the Destin store is over the top in service so I am looking forward to having one up there when I am in Arkansas, most eveyone elst will too. Glad Little Rock could get the tax benefits and not Moron Hayes in NLR.

Went to Bass Pro once. Nice to visit but everything is too expensive. Most of the stuff is over priced cheap crap. Jobs? yea, more under paid retail jobs from a business that sends the projects out of state and gets tax breaks so where the benefits? After the mad rush the place will turn into another abandoned building.

Bass Pro, you have been talking for years about a store in Central Arkansas, we will see. If you are smart, I think you will change the location. The Security will cost you millions. Little Rock is 6th in the Nation for crime, the local news reported the new FBI report today. S/W L.R is the highest in the City for crime, you may consider West LR.

The intersection of I-30 and I-430? I guess the developers thought there wasn't already enough congestion in that area.

Stupid mayors make other stupid mayors look good. One hint of advice to Bass Pro. Armed security.
